1. Prisoners of hope, arise,
and see your Lord appear;
Lo! on the wings of love He flies,
and brings redemption near;
Redemption in His blood
He calls you to receive:
Look unto Me, the pardoning God.
Believe, He cries, believe!
2. The reconciling word,
we thankfully embrace;
Rejoice in our redeeming Lord,
a blood besprinkled race.
We yield to be set free;
Thy counsel we approve;
Salvation, praise, ascribe to Thee,
and glory in Thy love.
3. Jesus, to Thee we look,
till saved from sin’s remains;
Reject the inbred tyrant’s yoke,
and cast away his chains.
Our nature shall no more
over us dominion have;
By faith we apprehend the power
which shall forever save.
